Indeed EH

It is a Love not of this World

And thats where the "expereince" comes in

It cannot be spoken - only expereinced

So you are correct in that Love presently has to be shared - that is the golden rule and the key - you follow it the same as i do - in your way

Then at some point we begin to look beyond the Worlds veiw and that is when the expereince happens

In that expereince we realise we are complete and cannot be alone

Sorry i cant be more clear on that - its just how it is in my thinking

Following on to Eolas

Forgive me for not explaining a little further because it may seem i condemn your faith and that is NOT intended


I did not say the OT was false
What I was trying to point out in my usual clumsy way is that is old thought
The NT is the new thought

It is essential that Moses brought us the commandments - It ensured that even in our "judgements" we all became the same - sinners
Thats actually a good thing

No one could walk this earth without breaking a commandment because seeing this Earth is breaking a commandment - It is a false image
ONLY God is truth

Now this being done and spread about the Earth meant that when Jesus came to "take away the sins" he could do that for all because ALL were "apprantly according to the commandments" sinners

So Jesus takes away our sins and gives us the new LAW
Gods LAW

Love ALL as ourselves - forgive Love gentleness non condemnation etc etc
Higher vision of each other etc etc


Because we are all the same

IT IS IN THIS REALISATION THAT WE EXPEREINCE GOD

So the OT is essential but it is now time to move to the next stage of our awakening
To see ALL through Gods eyes

I hope that makes some sense and appologise that i cannot point to Biblical text - I was given ACIM by God


That said i havent read the OT in its etirity and perhaps it has the same message within it ?


This is in no way a condemnation of any belief - We all go home

Finally I dont think I am a Christian ?
What does that mean?

Serious question as I dont know

It is us humans trying to figure out why God made us. So if we say He was alone, we can probably deal with that as an answer. However, humans can't think like God, don't know what being everything really means! We can try to imagine it but its beyond our grasp of total understanding! Some humans need to have the answers to everything, they want to know all the answers to life and they serch their whole lives to find those answers. It is good when people ca come up with some pretty good evidence to some of the questions people have. So that's why I love science. I always thougt God liked science to. I think God loves for us to search in this way. I have even been fscinated with the thought of God letting Himself be found by humans! I don't think God likes for humans to be cosed minded!
